I've poked around the puppet docs, and google, and so far I'm stuck on an 
apparent inconsistency of usage, when it comes to using arrays, and 
variables, interchangably.
I should mention this is with puppet 3.0.1

If you use literal arrays, both of the following are possible and accepted 
by puppet:

package{ ['pkg1', 'pkg2']: 
  blahblah
}

service{ foo:
     require => Package['pkg1', 'pkg2'],
}


However.  If I define a variable, 
$pkglist=['pkg1','pkg2']

Then, while I CAN do
package{ $pkglist:
  blahblah
}

It seems I cannot do

service{ foo:
  require => Package $pkglist ,
}

This makes me sad :(
Can someone tell if if there is some language shenanigans I must do, to get 
puppet to accept the last bit?
